This report shows how Pakistan's soaring population is piling pressure on its cities as its macroeconomic position remains uncertain and proposes a new model of urbanization to help make its cities more resilient and livable.

The report outlines how myriad factors including failing public services, inadequate urban planning, insufficient housing, and the risks of climate change are contributing to declining quality of life in Pakistan's cities. It shows measures including strengthening planning, introducing public-private partnerships, and enhancing financial stability could help Pakistan remove barriers to growth and build on its comparative advantages to support economic development and a more sustainable future.
